To our valued Swim School Families,
With the Victorian Government announcing a further easing of restrictions for Metropolitan Melbourne, we are excited to see our programs return.
After much consideration and feedback from the community we do understand that many families would like to travel and spend this school holiday time with family. Returning the program early and unexpectedly was not favored and as such Swimming lessons will resume from the start of Term 3, Monday July 12 after our traditional winter school holiday break. We are excited to announce that we will be running a School Holiday Program, further details below.
We have put together the following information to help you prepare for your return:
Lessons / Classes:
- Lesson places were held throughout our closure period. You are still enrolled in our Learn to Swim program at your regular day and time.
- Your regular class will return the week beginning Monday 12 July 2021.
Payments:
- All swimming lesson payments will continue to remain on suspension, however as per our traditional Winter school holiday break you still are able to utilise your swim school membership benefits which allows for free entry of the student and a supervisory adult (supervisory entry allows water access to guardian of a student under 5 only).
- Your next debit payment is scheduled for Monday 12 July 2021.
- In line with our temporary closure, students owed a lesson credit from Friday 28th, Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th May, have had this automatically applied to their account.
